Sunday is not the "Christian Sabbath" ... This objection is invalid in light of the fact that all things revealed in the old covenant having to do with the eternal divine principles of decency, right and justice are also given with even greater emphasis in the perfect law, which is the law of liberty, which is the law of Christ. In reading the New Testament, we find that Jesus and his inspired apostles taught all the commandments of the Decalog, with the exception of the fourth commandment, the Sabbath law. There is no command in the covenant of Christ for any man to keep the Sabbath. The only day given special recognition in the new covenant is the first day of the week, commonly called Sunday, referred to in the scriptures as the Lord's Day. This day is not the Christians' Sabbath, as some assert. The Sabbath, whenever mentioned in the scriptures, always without exception, designates the seventh day of the week. Nowhere in the Bible is it affirmed that the first day of the week is given in place of the Sabbath. It is part of ... ... https://www.bible.ca/ntx-sabbath-sunday.htm

Material Possessions and the Family The answer to these questions is yes; it is possible, indeed, probable, for we know that our God is a jealous God and wants no other God placed before Him.

The thousand years appears nowhere in the sixty-six books, 1,189 chapters, 31,173 verses of the Bible except in this one passage where it occurs six times in six consecutive verses. It is not solid study to build an entire system of beliefs about the end of the world, and the status of the kingdom on such a highly symbolic passage. More especially when that interpretation conflicts with other plain passages of scripture. In a book that is highly symbolic, we face certain difficulties accepting a theory of a thousand year reign of Jesus on earth, when we consider the total view of the book.

Sola Scriptura: Apostolic Fathers Catechism Class for Catholics ... Answer: When the fathers would refer to "tradition" often they referred to scripture itself!
